“God doesn’t forget people. People forget to pray.”
I love Jessica Ashley’s Christian romantic suspense, so when I realized that this book was chosen for bookclub this month, I couldn’t wait to read it. Ashley’s exploration of growth was powerful. She showed how change happens during moments of discomfort. Humans tend to shy away from discomfort, not realizing that it’s a powerful catalyst.
The youngest Hunt brother, Dylan, has returned broken from an assignment overseas. He feels he’s too broken to consider himself worthy of love, God’s or Emmaline Franklin’s. He’s angry with God and is suffering from survivor’s guilt. His discomfort at seeing Emma appear to move on with her life jumpstarts the unloading of burdens and encourages his growth. I loved watching his growth.
The tension created by the Karver family was perfectly balanced with the emotional pull of a tender reconciliation and room made for second chances.
I highly recommend this series!
